to the problem of stylistic organization of a secondary text
The paper compares the stylistic organization of Dostoevsky’s poem «The Double» (1846)
and Akhsharumov’s eponymous tale «The Double» (1850) which were published in the «Native
Notes» (Otechestvennye Zapiski). The investigation of the style of these texts shows some changes
in classic literature canon influenced by the Pushkin style. It is studied in the context of literature evolution (Tyn’yanov, Vinogradov). «The Double» of Akhsharumov is a secondary text, but
his stylistic organization has a character of compensation. We can call it a «return», a «recognition
» of Pushkin’s canon through Gogol and Dostoevsky style being canceled. The Plot of «The
Double» of Akhsharumov presents Dostoevsky story in the stylistic form of Pushkin «The Belkin
Tales» and his other prose texts (notably «The Queen of Spades»). This observation suggests that
the secondary text resulting from the aesthetic response to the original work often has a paradoxical
extensive character of style in his nature, which allows maintaining the balance between archaists
and innovators in the history of Russian culture.
